In this new day and age, the Internet is a crucial component of any successful business, and while it is an incredible (and necessary) tool, there is something to be said for companies that implement more “traditional” ways of conducting business as well. At Grand Ideas, we want to make sure that there is always a personal connection to our clients and work hard to ensure that we’re not just another internet-based company without a face behind it.

More about South Windermere Neighborhood

People in the real estate biz have noticed that the West Ashley suburb of Charleston has been getting a lot of attention recently from prospective buyers. More specifically, the South Windermere neighborhood has been particularly sought after…and we think we have a few reasons why. Sure there are the obvious amenities: the convenient shopping center, easy commute to downtown, and a growing number of restaurants coming to the area, but there’s a larger contributing factor at play. The classic, old-fashioned feeling of South Windermere is evident not only in the architecture, but also in the attitude of its residents. Personal connections are everything in this neighborhood, and we adapt the same attitude when we conduct business.

Grand Ideas Compound

The specific Grand Ideas Compound was built in 1955, as were many others in the neighborhood. The house itself is a typical example of homes being built at the time, and has a great feeling to it. The “compound” also includes five huge live oaks, a koi pond, and a converted detached potting shed that is now Grandee’s private office. While the home is certainly private, being that it is located in South Windermere, means we are part of a very connected community. People actually know their neighbors here, and make a point to look out for one another. This plays an important role in how we conduct business at Grand Ideas. Getting to know our clients is everything, and we even do door-to-door deliveries for some of our clients! Just like the old milk man, or Charlie’s Chips, Teresa and Grandee delivered orders to two separate clients just this week. Just another example of how hands on we like to be with each and every one of our accounts.

And we’ll end on a word from our fearless leader, Grandee: “We believe in valuable face-time with our customers; it helps us to understand your business before recommending ideas that offer the “AHA!” or “WOW!” factor. No other company offers such an innovative, specialized approach.”
